Hi,
 
Please don't use  MS Visual Java++. Its microsoft properitory using afc. You
should use  Java from Sun Microsystem.
And for database connectivity for nay rdbms pure java based jdbc drivers (type
3) are available and this is not a odbc-jdbc bridge. Now every rdbms is also
coming with their jdbc driver (100% pure java)

If u develop any application using ms visual java there is no gurantee of
running the class file in every platform.

I am not writing all this because I don't like microsoft, but for the reason
that if microsoft does'nt own any thing it try to destroy that thing.
